An Amazing Artist

Karina was absolutely FANTASTIC! She has a fun energy and does an absolutely BEAUTIFUL job on her clients. I loved my makeup, my bridal party party’s as well as my mother/mother-in-law’s. She knew how to bring out everyone’s natural beauty. A true artist. She also works quick and knows how to keep a schedule. She went above and beyond working with me. I had to postpone my wedding TWO TIMES and I was so lucky she was still available both dates. She even reached out to ask if I needed anything in the meantime. I had mentioned my skin was starting to breakout (mostly due to COVID Wedding stress), but she recommended a great brand I have been using to this day; Sonia Roselli. I also asked what color lip liner I should pair with the lipstick I wanted to wear. She actually went to a store to check out my lipstick brand and color to find a matching lip liner. She then BOUGHT it for me so I didn’t need to go out of my way to get it and I was able to pay her the wedding day for it. I couldn’t have imagined my day without Karina. She’s an amazing person and makeup artist. I can’t recommend her enough!

Karina did an amazing job on my bridal makeup and my bridesmaids makeup! I did not elect to do a makeup trial the day of I described to her what I wanted and she made it happen! Payment and consulting was easy and the turnout was perfect! Would highly recommend!

Made me look and feel beautiful!

Karina’s work is STUNNING. I can’t find enough positive words to describe her and her team. Finding a makeup artist for my wedding was something I had been stressed about, but within minutes of meeting with Karina, I knew I was in good hands. She made my makeup look so natural and went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with what we decided. I loved working with Karina - not only is she an expert in her field, but an amazing person as well. She made me feel truly beautiful on my wedding day. Thank you Karina!!

Wonderful makeup!

Karina was amazing to work with for the wedding! She made me look natural and not too heavy on anything. My bridesmaids loved her as well! Our makeup lasted all day and night and I got so many compliments. She is professional and amazing to work with!

My makeup still looked flawless by the end of the night!

I chose Karina for my wedding makeup initially because I wanted to support a northern Kentucky MUA. I went to her studio in Covington for my trial – which was beautiful and cozy. She was very attentive to my worries and requests (and complaints regarding the false lashes, ha ha, total makeup noobie here.). Her communication was great between the trial and day-of. She arrived the day of the wedding on time and with everything you could possibly need. She did beautiful makeup on myself, 2 bridesmaids and 2 moms. My makeup still looked flawless by the end of the night. Thanks Karina!

Karina did an amazing job on my makeup. I was really nervous because I normally don't wear makeup. I wanted to look good but I also wanted to look like myself. During the makeup trial, Karina found the perfect balance. I loved it! She did the same for my wedding day and it lasted the whole night. I would definitely recommend other brides to use her.

A friend recommended Makeup by Karina for my wedding day makeup and I'm so glad she did! Karina has a way of making you feel comfortable and at ease right away. She's so friendly and helpful and was very flexible with working with me on getting exactly what I wanted for my big day! Most of my bridesmaids and my mom also had their makeup done by Karina and everyone loved it. She was very professional and efficient with her time. She really took her time with everyone and got the job time in a timely manner. As for me, my wedding make-up was perfect! I was worried because I'm somewhat picky about how I like my make-up but Karina listened to what I wanted and really nailed it! I couldn't have asked for more to complete my whole wedding look!

Karina did make up for me, my mom, and 4 bridesmaids. Everyone looked amazing and our makeup lasted all day. I would HIGHLY recommend having at least 4+ hours. My time frame (because of my schedule) was squished and we barely got done in time. We had 6 girls getting makeup done in 3 hours. This was the only stress of makeup. Karina is fun, professional, and does a WONDERFUL job. My make up was even better than it was at my trial, which I didnt think was possible. I would highly recommend her for any event you need make up for.

Karina was a wonderful addition to my vendor team for my wedding! I got many compliments on my makeup in my engagement pictures as well as on my wedding day! The morning of my wedding, Karina and her assistant showed up on time and had all of the girls ready in plenty of time! Everyone loved their makeup and said it was their favorite makeup they have gotten done for a wedding! The airbrush makeup is very natural and you cannot even tell it is there! Our makeup looked fresh all day, even through the August heat!

Karina is super sweet and makes you feel like you've known her forever! She definitely knows how to make a bride feel extra beautiful on her wedding day! Thank you Karina!

Karina did makeup for me and a couple of my bridesmaids for my wedding at the end of March. She was so sweet and did an amazing job! Our looks were natural but very beautiful. The photographs came out great. I would definitely recommend her to brides looking for a make-up artist.
